A patient presented with a 10-cm mass in the left lobe of the liver. Liver biopsy revealed hepatocellular carcinoma with abundant bile staining. A chest roentgenogram showed a 13-mm nodule in the right mid-lung field. A 99Tc HIDA scan was ordered for the evaluation of the pulmonary nodule. Intense uptake of the radionuclide was noted in the location of the nodule. The findings in this case suggest that the 99Tc HIDA scan may be a useful staging agent after the diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma has been documented.
一名患者肝脏左叶出现一个10厘米的肿块。肝脏活检显示为肝细胞癌,胆汁染色丰富。胸部X线片显示右肺中叶有一个13毫米的结节。为评估肺部结节,安排了99锝-亚氨基二乙酸(99Tc HIDA)扫描。在结节部位发现放射性核素摄取强烈。该病例的结果表明,在确诊肝细胞癌后,99Tc HIDA扫描可能是一种有用的分期检查手段。
